Startup Idea: Truck-Specific GPS Navigation App
Summary for idea #172
Startup idea to develop a GPS navigation app particularly designed for truck drivers. It should factor in and highlight key route considerations like low bridges, railroad tracks, steep hills and safe places for U-turns and maneuvering trucks. It's a solution meant to enhance safety and efficiency in truck driving.

I don't know if a solution to this problem already exists, but I drive a large truck for work. It has air brakes but doesn't require a CDL.
This would also apply to 18 wheelers though. Like, I'm sure you've seen pictures or videos of 18 wheelers or other big trucks stuck on railroad tracks or under bridges that were too short.
It would be extremely helpful for truck drivers of all types if there were a GPS specifically for them that pointed out all low bridges, railroad tracks and steep hills.
Also if an app like this could show the closest place where an 18 wheeler or any truck with a trailer could turn around safely and not get stuck. I think an app like this would help a lot of people and potentially be very profitable.
